Our neighbors got guests for dinner tonight. Two baby raccoons came over to their house. It's hard to tell how tiny they are from this picture, but they were a little wobbly, and must be very young. I heard that a mountain lion just killed a raccoon in our neighborhood, and I hope that wasn't the mom.

    They look sad and very scared. Probably was their Mom. :-( Its true, you can not tell in pictures how small they are.

    I never saw those two after this event. Another neighbor had them around for a while, but I don't know what happened to them. Maybe the mother was the one who had been killed, unfortunately. We'll never know.

    They are so sweet. What a shame that they seem to have no mom. Poor little babies.

    LOL. I believe Racoons wear "mask" because they are always up to mischief.
